Although you are on a 2.6.35 kernel, the dkms build log shows

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-25-generic'

Please uninstall any linux-headers packages, and install the default using

   apt-get install linux-headers-generic

I am going to mark this bug invalid, but please do respond if you need more help.
